If possible vs if it is possible

Both are correct phrases, but they're used in slightly different contexts. 'If possible' is a more concise, informal way of expressing the condition, while 'if it is possible' is more formal and explicit. The choice between the two phrases depends on the level of formality and clarity you want to convey in your sentence.
